Where inspiration meets action.

San Diego Grantmakers is joining forces with the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation to bring together leaders from across sectors for a first of its kind virtual summit built to challenge thinking and inspire action. What if the lessons of 2020 could be leveraged towards transformational and inclusive growth? We have an extraordinary opportunity to not build back, but build better towards a region of shared prosperity and equitable economy.

Join us for a day-long exploration of the systems, strategies and resources it takes to build an economy rooted in equity for the San Diego region. We will come at this topic from all sides: Summit speakers will outline a clear vision of an equitable economy, and the policies and approaches to move us there, sharing the values they stand for, the issues and communities they stand with, and the systems they stand up to. Hear from experts on the foundational elements of an inclusive, equitable economy about the building blocks it takes to achieve. Learn from inspiring leaders of cross-sector collaborations that are changing systems towards an equitable economy, and be inspired by artistic performances from community members who will illuminate other dimensions of need they are witnessing.

Leave with a clear understanding of practical solutions you can implement immediately towards resourcing an equitable economy, and a healthy dose of inspiration from the talented leaders that will bring these ideas to life. Let's build better together.
